Changes In Wave Properties: Sorting Activity
Directions: In small groups, sort the wave images based on each condition
listed below. List the order of the answers on the group worksheet. Note:
Students should cut out each wave image. Once cut out, students can place
the images on top of one another to compare amplitude, wavelength, and
frequency.
Condition 1: Sort the wave images from smallest amplitude to highest
amplitude. Answers: 2, 6, 3, 1, 5, 4
Condition 2: Sort the wave images from shortest wavelength to longest
wavelength. Answers: 2, 5, 4, 1, 3, 6
Condition 3: Sort the wave images from lowest frequency to highest
frequency. Answers: 6, 3, 1, 4, 5, 2
After completing the three conditions, groups should answer the additional
questions.
4. Which of the following waves is more than likely transferring the
greatest amount of energy? 2 or 6 Explain your answer. Wave 2 is more
than likely transferring the greatest amount of energy because it has a
higher frequency than Wave 6.
5. Which of the following waves is more than likely transferring the
greatest amount of energy? 4 or 3 Explain your answer. Wave 4 is more
than likely transferring the greatest amount of energy because it has a
higher amplitude and frequency. Higher amplitude = more energy and
higher frequency = more energy.
6. Compare your answers for Conditions 2 and 3. What do you notice?
They are the opposite of one another, which shows frequency and
wavelength are inversely related.
